Hey ladies, I have a quick question about this process. Mister's medical exam is next Tuesday and as of today, he still has not received the interview appt letter from the embassy (packet 4??). I do believe that what they attached in an e-mail to me is the same letter though. If this is the case, should I just fax (or e-mail) it to him so he can take the fax copy with him to the exam?

Yes...he needs the interview letter to get the medical exam. At least, I remember my husband having to show it.

Oh okay...Do ya'll have field office onsite too? Has any auditors came to your TSC from Baltimore?

I worked with Medicare and Medicaid too. I did more financial work rather than site visits. I know one way to get fired is to try to look up someone that is famous or you own self on that system and RED FLAGS are going off.

no we don't.. the nearest fo is just down the street tho.. we have auditors but from what the sups say..its more for time and leave and record keeping quality.. ive never known anyone to listen to our call.. except those working in QC and they plug in from their office..

yep DON NOT LOOK UP SSN's.. this lady told us a story of how she looked up REAGAN..it was too funny not only did she mess up w/ looking up a famous person but THE PRESIDENT.. uhhh can u say natioanl threat now.. she kept her job but said she was a person of interest for a long time afterward WOW..

Has anyone had to use a faxed (in other words, not original) copy to take with them? I'm also not sure if what the embassy e-mailed me is the 'official' letter although I *think* it is.

Make sure you always twirl once in front of the mirror before leaving home:

I had a friend that went to Jamaica with me and she had on Hot Wheels undies with the flames shooting across her butt....I didn't notice it until we had partied half the night. By then...it was too late to tell her to change. LOL

Sus I am still holding out hope that things are worked out and you guys still get married.

Me too. I'm really praying that you will just move the honeymoon over to Negril Sus.

Jawi, I just sent you an EYE FULL...don't get a headache.

This whole process is a headache. It was nothing like this back when I filed before...geez! The NVC confirmed that they got my case yesterday...now what? How do I find out that the Embassy has it? I still don't have my hardcopy of my NOA2 yet.

I think that would be fine...of course I'm following you so take it with a grain of salt. LOL

We fired a whole slew of people for looking up cell records for Obama.

How is the area where the SS office is? I've seen some with glass service windows..and interview section is guarded. People are not just going for SSNs they are also going to make claim for disability benefits. They might have mental problems that enable them to work. And if they don't get benefits they can go off.

I've seen some offices where the person making the claim is walked in the back to the claims rep desk. That is scary. Dont' have no sissors on you desk.

lol.. yep and the big guard at the door.. and standing in line outside for 30 -45 min b4 they let u in.. yeah i guess its the embassy all over again LOL

[dancehallquana 5]

ive only worked in the ofc near my house and both of those do NOT have people come into the place where the CR's are.. u have to sit at the window and the chairs are chained to the floor so nobody will pick them up LOL

yeah it can get pretty ugly.. even the ppl for SSN's now w/ all the rules to get even a replacement.. this lady couldn't get her kids cards and she told the supervisor to meet her outside LOL.. girl its never a dull day in the FO..

[dillon 6]

Ells you should be receiving the same letter they sent him in your mail. To cover yourself I would fax them what you have...I know I got my letter just before his medical so we would have been covered so it still may show up between now and then. I know some people have called the NVC to let them know that they didn't get their letter and they have emailed it to them. You might try that? Just explain that they need it for the medical and you nor him have received it.

[dancehallquana 5]

dang jawi.. fired?? no slap on the hand, second chance for stupidity factor.. i would hate to lose my job for something like that

they need to stop it.

We had that recommendation every year...for SSA to properly secure the field offices. it's good to know they have the chairs tied down.

Title XVI was my area. So I always got the interesting interviews. Sad though. Seeing these young mothers complain about being so depressed that they can't work.
